According to Amazon.com, the soundtrack for the film is pretty crazy — I’ve never seen one that combines Philip Glass and MCR, and I’m not sure that I want to. Here’s the full tracklisting:

1. My Chemical Romance, “Desolation Row”

2. Nat King Cole, “Unforgettable”
3. Bob Dylan, “The Times They Are A-Changin’”
4. Simon & Garfunkel, “The Sound of Silence”
5. Janis Joplin, “Me and Bobby McGee”
6. KC and the Sunshine Band, “I’m Your Boogie Man”
7. Billie Holiday, “You’re My Thrill”
8. Philip Glass, “Pruit Igoe & Prophecies”
9. Leonard Cohen, “Hallelujah”
10. Jimi Hendrix, “All Along the Watchtower”
11. Richard Wagner, “Ride of the Valkyries” (Budapest Symphony Orchestra)
12. Nina Simone, “Pirate Jenny”

Wow — what a playlist! I’ll be sure to let you know how that works out. If I can stay awake, that is … I think I’ve suddenly become ninety years old. Yikes. More to follow!

I’ll tell you right now that Australia stinks and Deception was actually OK. I’ve only seen two movies with Michelle Williams, counting the latter, but she was quite terrific in Brokeback Mountain and I am interested to see some more of her work.

I’m sure you’ve all heard by now, but in case you haven’t, frontman Steven Page has left the Barenaked Ladies. Read the story. Bizarrely, Paul McCartney was recently quoted as saying that BNL “sing much better” than the Fab Four, and that he would consider recording with them. Now’s your chance, Macca!

Also, in case you missed the boat the first two times, the Weakerthans have added a third show here in Toronto at the Phoenix Concert Theatre on April 2, following the selling-out of the shows on March 31 and April 1. They will be joined by The Constantines and The Waking Eyes; tickets are $25 advance.

Somewhat relatedly, Sloan have beefed up their CMW roster and added another band for both of their nights at the Mod Club Theatre, March 11 and 12. Joining them for the first night will be Zeus, while the second night will kick off with Hexes & Ohs. Both nights also sport a set by Murderecords fellows Will Currie & The Country French.

That’s all I have! Come back tomorrow for a new Tunesday track. I’ll also have a review of Watchmen here on Friday; tickets for the midnight showing are sitting right next to me. Awwww, yeah.
